Thats why she can't bend wood, wood has life force stated by her when she was captured
No. She can't bend Wood because Wood is not Earth. Not because it's alive or something

Also Toph never states anything like what you said
And also this isn't a movement speed feat its an attack and attacks speed doesn't mean its the person's speed. And her movement speed wouldn't scale to them toph isn't shown reacting to lightening like zuko or iroh.
Toph's attack and reaction speed scales to Zuko, Aang, Azula and Iroh's lightning reaction feats (which you can also see in the profile).

This is not movement speed. And also ALL speeds are equalized, including Toph and Gaara's attack speed, and considering this Gaara's attack speed is slower than Toph's, he ain't outspeeding her at all
And I'm saying the sand has lifeforce so she can't bend it
Again, stated nowhere. Not even in that episode
 
Why are we acting as if Toph can only control sand? She can control all kinds of earth, giving her a large environmental advantage. Even if her control of sand isn’t as good as his, her controlling his sand would definitely take Gaara off guard at first. She can turn his sand into stone to use to her advantage, and let’s not forget she also has metal bending, which is something that’s far stronger than her regular earth bending. With her already having the higher AP, adding metal armor to that would give Gaara a huge run for his money, especially if she manages to get up close and physical, which wouldn’t be too good for Gaara because she’s rather skilled in martial arts. But Gaara? In this key he’s not really good at taijutsu at all.

I just want people to keep these factors in mind because not much is known about Toph.

People argued she can't control his sand, so I answered those claims
 
Wait how is toph getting pass his sand barrier? And Toph is not bending the sand in gaara gourd, it is sentient.
And isn't gaara in this key prone to go wild and bijuu stuff

I don’t think anyone is. This is about Toph Sandbeding Gaara's sand.

Toph AP advantage as it is is less than a X2, without taking into account that she scales to or is superior to EoS Aang, whereas Gaara's scaling chain involves him being superior to someone who effortlessly defeated a stronger version of the one who performed the original feat. The gap isn’t that big.

Prove it's enough to deal with her metal bending.

life force has never been stated to stop bending. In fact we know it isn't related, since swamp benders exist
 
Idk, really don't think she can keep u
Exactly, so Toph could bend the earth in the sand, even if the overall thing is living.
Even if she can she would make it even more difficult and she isn't as good as bending it as garaa so she really can't. Plus one tail then blow her away np

Wdym she would make it even more difficult? Also who says she's not as good at bending it? Her power is greater, so she'd be able to wrestle control from him. And he's restricted to 8-B, so no Shukaku
What stops Gaara from using Shukaku to fodderize if he gets desperate?
See above

He gets the partial transformation. Also he's shown better control with sand through feats. Her higher AP doesn't come from manipulating sand.
